Two new species, Sarcophaga (Sarcosolomonia) collessi sp.nov. and Sarcophaga (Sarcorohdendorfia) clavus sp.nov., both collected in Queensland, Australia, are described, and the following four new synonymies are proposed: Sarcophaga horti Blackith and Blackith, 1988 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga bancroftorum Johnston and Tiegs, 1921; Sarcophaga fergusonina Hardy, 1940 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga assimilis Macquart, 1851; Sarcophaga brevicornis Ho, 1934 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga kohla Johnston and Hardy, 1923a; and Sarcophaga triplex Hardy, 1943 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga furcata Hardy, 1932.

Utility of COI, CAD and morphological data for resolving relationships within the genus Sarcophaga (sensu lato) (Diptera: Sarcophagidae): a preliminary study.
Currently there are ≈ 3000 known species of Sarcophagidae (Diptera), which are classified into 173 genera in three subfamilies. Almost 25% of sarcophagids belong to the genus Sarcophaga (sensu lato) however little is known about the validity of, and relationships between the ≈ 150 (or more) subgenera of Sarcophaga s.l. In this preliminary study, we evaluated the usefulness of three sources of d...

The third instar larva of Sarcophaga hirticrus Pandellé, 1896 and Sarcophaga javita (Peris, González-Mora and Mingo, 1998) are described and figured for the first. The use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been demonstrated as an effective tool for determining differences at the specific level, and is here applied. The two species are distinguished from other Sarcophaga spp. and the pri...

In Mediterranean countries, Sarcophaga (Liopygia) crassipalpis, Sarcophaga (L.) argyrostoma, and Sarcophaga (L.) cultellata share the same ecological niche and can be responsible of myiasis. In this study, the main morphological characters of a larva found in a hospitalized woman were described and illustrated by light and SEM microscopy and the features discussed. Then, a fragment within the m...
